Major-General George Dean Pitt (K.H.)〔Knight, Hanoverian Order. Apparently very rarely awarded (see: )〕 (1781〔(List of Leaders of former New Zealand Provinces )〕 or 1772〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.aucklandcity.govt.nz/dbtw-wpd/exec/dbtwpub.dll?AC=QBE_QUERY&QF0=RecordID&QI0=2497&TN=SSCIndex&RF=Reportweb&NP=2 )〕 - 8 January 1851) was Lieutenant-Governor of the former New Zealand Province of New Ulster from 14 February 1848 to his death on 8 January 1851.〔 His father was George Pitt, 2nd Baron Rivers.〔〕 During his military career before arriving in New Zealand, Pitt, at the time a Major, was stationed (January - September 1828) at Malta with the 80th Regiment of Foot (Staffordshire Volunteers).〔(The British Army Garrison in Malta. 1828 - 1865 )〕 Married Susan Baillie (1797 - 18 March 1875) Pitt arrived with his family on the barque ''Minerva'' at Auckland on 8 October 1847.〔 Pitt was the second most important military man in the new colony during the governorship of George Grey. His son and two of his sons-in-law were part of the military establishment as well. His residence was located in Pitt street, which had originally been called Pyt Street after a childhood home of the first governor William Hobson, it is likely the spelling changed because of Dean Pitt's presence. He died while Lieutenant-Governor and was buried in the Symonds Street Cemetery in Auckland.〔 == Children == *Emelia Marie Dean (20 June 1820 - 5 April 1877) m. 23 May 1848 at St. Paul's Church, Auckland, Captain J.H.Laye〔(Marriages mentioned in ''The New Zealander'' 1843-1890 )〕 *Lieutenant-General George Dean Pitt (C.B.)
